Neovim nightly already has some tools available as plugins. I'm using tree-sitter for syntax highlighting, text objects, and folding right now. Pretty satisfied so far.
>I had never thought about the connotations of blacklist and whitelist before it was pointed out to me. In retrospect, blacklist and whitelist are unnatural meanings of the words black and white, and blocklist and…
>Look at it done correctly: tomc1985 objects that "[he is] one of these people, and [he] most definitely exists!" You also need brackets around "exists" since the original quote had "exist". I think you're proving the…
The option seller needs to buy the stock to deliver the shares when the option expires, so if the price continues rising their losses are unbounded (by contrast, their gains are bounded by how much they originally sold…
>objectively clearer terminology Sorry but I find this claim (which I've heard from others too) ridiculous. "Blacklist" is an actual common English word in the dictionary. "Denylist" is an incredibly awkward-sounding…
>So we will probably need to recapture CO2 as well – or rather we will need to develop the necessary tech first. Maybe this is a stupid question, but isn't the necessary tech "planting trees"?
You could expand this category to an AI for a number of similar games (like checkers and reversi) as well. I've written a double dummy solver for bridge--a program that computes the optimal result of the play of a…
Chess is a very rich and pretty well-balanced game--that's what makes it so rewarding to study and to play. Even amongst modern computers that are miles ahead of the best humans, there's nowhere close to a single…
>I remember back in the day when we used to just ask people if they could do FizzBuzz now we're looking at if they used an interface to wrap their ORM usage. That's something that can get picked up at code review and…
This comment thread is discussing Uber's profitability and how much they'd need to raise prices to break even independent of Prop 22.
If that was only in the US or other wealthy economies, maybe. But they're an international company. Some of those rides are in places where a $2 increase doubles the price of the ride. I think it would be more revealing…
>There's also the weird thing of younger people like myself avoiding proper punctuation/capitalization for the aesthetic. Mainly because a lack of proper writing can make certain messages feel more "relaxed" and casual,…
As soon as I saw the title I remembered this Julia Evans post about the same issue: https://jvns.ca/blog/2015/11/21/why-you-should-understand-a-...
The cheapest tool you can find is surely the sort in your programming language's standard library. Writing your own sort seems crazy to me.
I don't know why everyone is convinced this is satire. Satire of what? To me it reads as a straight piece on a very opinionated way to hire people.
I think it's best to use native speakers as oracles: you can give them a piece of language and they can tell you if it's correct/natural or how they'd phrase it. You can't expect people to go beyond that, and trying to…
>Fires have health and economic impacts on people who aren't in immediate danger of being burned to death and the only way to minimize these impacts to reduce the number of fires. Reducing the number of fires isn't…
A min heap is different from a min-max heap. A min-max heap supports the operations of both a min heap and a max heap (essentially by interleaving the two). A normal min heap is a standard data structure, a min-max heap…
Yes indeed. Say you're creating a new component, and this new component will contain (among other things) some existing component, but the existing component needs to be styled slightly differently in this particular…
Originally one point was that you signed the back of your card and the merchant would compare the signature on your receipt to the signature on the card to verify your identity. Another point was so the merchant has…
You're confusing two different things. Ye as a plural pronoun is a bone fide archaic English word, ultimately sharing an etymology with the still-extant "you". "Ye" as an article ("Ye olde...") has the history you…
Fun idea! I will say that the interface feels a bit mobile-first to a fault: the swiping interaction isn't very desktop friendly. It'd be nice to have some buttons to click on for those of us using mice or trackpads.
No, because it's not scientific. There's no agreed upon definition of what counts as a unique word. Do you count every inflected form, like "dog" and "dogs"? Derivations from other words? Homonyms? Compound words? How…
>That's what open and curve mean in topology. For example, the set of x with 0 <= x <= 1 is open, whereas 0 < x < 1 would be closed. It's infamously confusing terminology, since sets can be both closed and open, or…
Indeed, the idea of 200 points in 16 days is more or less absurd, at least beyond beginner levels. In fact, looking at the author's Lichess profile I see no evidence of any improvement at all, to be blunt. Improvement…
